Traveling On My Knees

Last night I took a journey
to a land across the seas.
I didn't go by ship or plane…
I traveled on my knees.





I saw so many people there
in bondage to their sin,
and Jesus told me I should go…
that there were souls to win.





I said "Jesus, I can't go
to lands across the seas."
He answered quickly, "Yes, you can…
by traveling on your knees."





He said, "You pray, I'll meet the need.
You call, and I will hear.
It's up to you to be concerned
For lost souls far and near."





And so I did; I knelt in prayer,
Gave up some hours of ease,
and with the Savior by my side,
I traveled on my knees.





As I prayed on, I saw souls saved
and twisted persons healed.
I saw God's workers strength renewed
while laboring in the field.





I said, "Yes Lord, I'll take the job.
Your heart I want to please.
I'll heed Your call and swiftly go
By traveling on my knees."
